#1 I'll bet that our pal Mohammed AlBaradei, the IAEA poobah, was in this group,too.
Any takers?

#2 This article is just the can opener on the proverbial worm can. Here you have a university cranking out nuclear type engineers for a country with no internal market. So who finances these guys? Is it siphoned off aid (UTT under the table) from the US, is it Saudi, Iraqi, Iran, or a combo? I smell a very large rat here, or a pack of rats. It is my view that the Egyptians are gaining ground on the Paks in the sh-t list.

#3 Nobody will ever beat out the Paks on the Secret Poop Listâ¢. See the above article on the fundo killer korps being allowed to put on false noses and chin whiskers.

#4 Alaska Paul, I sincerely doubt it was the US.
My money's on the Saudis. (Allah knows they've funded lots of other nefarious stuff in Egypt!)
Betcha also that this was the brainchild of Gamel Abdul Nasser, who was the first IslamoFascist nut to dream of an "Arab bomb."

#5 Jennie---I do not think that we knowingly did it. The Saudis are a prime candidate, since they have the bankroll. The thing that gets me is the deeper we dig, the stinkier it becomes, especially with the Saudis. Iran seems to be getting its expertise with the Russians on Bushehr. I think that it is time after Iraq to quit being nice to the Saudis, either publiclly or diplomatically. Need some Truman talk soon.
